i'd accidentally discovered mexicali on my way to tandoor one afternoon and stopped in. i found their burritoes far superior to mad 4 mex and qudoba. their atmosphere left an awful lot to be desired, but it quickly became my favorite lunch spot
MexiCali was/will be at 40th and Sansom. The one at 40th and Locust is

Mexican establishments in the area, two of them totally local, that may

What some of you may not know is that KFC and Taco Bell (and Pizza Hut)
are the same company. At one point all three were owned by Pepsico (Pepsi
Cola), which then spun them off. I don't know whether Pepsico still holds
a stake (odds are they do).
